l live in New Jersey and go to New York
every day to attend to business. Some time
ago was requested to purchase cradle for
our baby. Ought baby to have cradlel
This question suggested itself forcibly to my
mind, and the answer came in the form of
two more questions: What did babies do be-
fore cradles were invented What is the use
Of cradle, anyway / concluded that
cradles were introduced for style, and in re-
atty were instrumental in making slaves of
those who rocked them. Thus convinced,
went and bought good crib and sent it
home. One of my relations was Mortified at
what had done, and feared that the poor
child would suffer. My wife took a sensible
view of the situation, and resolved to try the
experiment of putting baby to sleep in crib.
The result was that it went to sleep without
rocking, and continues to do so up to the
present writing.
We also set our faces against the tossing
system so much in vogue. When it is time
for bed baby is put into the crib. and nine
times out of ten it goes to sleep sweetly al
most Immediately. The baby is now Is
months old, and has never been sick day
since birth. When it falls upon the floor no
notice is taken and it gets up without help
When it cries without any real cause it is let
alone and soon gets over the trouble | am
convinced that this is the true way to train a
child in infancy. Coddlng and fussing are
injurious in many respects, and prevents
children from being healthy, happy natural
little animals.-Cor Herald of Health.

In Longs life of Lee an interesting story of
a hen is told. A few chickens were once pre-
sented to the general In the lot was laying
hen whose life was spared. The hen accom-
panied the army to Gettysburg, riding in the
baggage wagon, and after that battle was
with the Confederates for nearly year. At
last the hen grew fat and lazy, and one day
the steward, finding his supplies very low and
knowing that the general expected distin-
guished guest at dinner, killed the hen and
she was served up on the altar of hospitality.
Gen Lee was surprised to see so fine fowl
set before him, but he little dreamed that his
pet hen had been slaughtered. When the hen
was missed, however, the steward had to con-
fess that he had been placed in position like
unto that of the boy who had to capture the
ground hog. There was company for dinner
and no meat.-Chicago Herald.

A LITTLE ONES FATE.
A Peculiarly Sad Accident at Port
Byron Last Night.
BESSIE Mason Falls Into a Quarry and
IL Found With Broken Neck sad
Termination OF an Evenings Play.

A peculiarly sad accident occurred
at Port Byron last night. During the
evening number of children of the
village, among them Bessie Mason aged
ten years. were playing about bon fire III
the neighborhood of the kilns and quarry
and Charles Wilson superintendent OF the
uuarries was burning heap of rubbish
and guarding the children. When the
time came for the children to go home,
little Bessie Mason was missing. A
search through the village was made for
her, resulting In her discovery by Mr..
Chas. Wilson in the bottom of one of the
quarrles. She had fallen forty feet, and
the neck had been dislocated and the
skull fractured.
How the child had met so terrible
fate can hardly be accounted for, un-
less it be that in leaving the scene of the
bon fire she had become blinded by the
flames, and wandered off the edge of the
opening not knowing whittier she was
going
The tragic death of the little one who
was the sunshine in the life of a widowed
mother. and special favorite in the
village, has cast gloom over the com,
munity in which she lived.
Coroner Halves has gone up to hold
an inquest.

A BIG STRIKE THREATENED.



DETROIT, Mich, April i5-The strike of
the stove mol,lers at ST. Louis is giving
promise Of developing into movement that
will result in general strike of that craft.
The Stove Manufacturers National Defence
association, an employers organization, held
a meeting here Wednesday by its executive
committee. The union molders have de-
ciared they would not anywhere use 81.
Louis patterns. This position the defense
association decided TO antagooize by requir-
ing the men TO use them in this city, Chi,
cago. and el,ewhere Nine hundred K of
l.. moders held meeting Wednesday night
and resolved not to touch one OF the tabooed
molds In all the assembly there was not
dissentient voice. Those who saw it say
that such unanimous resolution was never
before made in Detroit The stove bosses
seem quiet and coutented. The patterns
have not yet been ordered into the Detroit
district
A prominent member OF the Detroit Stove
company said Thursday morning: We re-
gret extremely that this trouble has occurred.
We are on the most harmonious terms with
our men If the patterns are ordered to De-
rolt, however, we snail certainly take them
in hand
The Detroit and Michigan works employ
about 900 TO 900 men each, $50 in each
shop being moi,ieis. The Peninsular works
employs about 500 men, including about $50
molders.
Secretary Thompson says: This decision
unquestionahly means a strike, and strike
means that $500 molders will quit work and
that 1000 men and boys will be- thrown out
oil employment More than that, the SAM
movement will sweep the country"
